The MC-30A Remote Trigger Release from Nikon is remote shutter release cable for select Nikon cameras. It features a trigger lock mechanism for unlimited time exposures. The MC-30A has a 10-pin plug and works with any Nikon with a 10-pin remote port including the following Nikon DSLRs: D3, D3s, D3x, D4, D200, D300, D300s, D700, D800, and D800E.

I use a wired remote shutter release a lot (do mostly landscape images). I purchased a Vello wired remote (AZ0512) not long ago. It worked fine until the wire connecting the cable to the shutter release end of the device split. Afterwards it only work intermitently. I replaced it with the Nikon MC-30A wired remote. The Nikon has all the same features including shutter hold lock for Bulb mode use. The quality of the Nikon seems better. It remains to be seen if it is more durable than the Vello (only had the Nikon a month). The Nikon MC-30A feels more comfortable in my hand. The release button is at the top of the device and the shutter hold button on the side (Vello uses a combo button). This makes it easy to use a few different finger combinations to trigger the release and, if necessary, slide the hold lock bar. The cable length is about the same as the Vello. A white arrow on the camera connection end of the Nikon cable makes connecting it to the camera easy and fool proof.

This is my second release and it is far better than my previous model, which crashed on me while I was trying to take Seascape images. It works well, but can be a little tricky (at least for me) to release the shutter and set the lock for long exposures. At this time I am using one hand to release the shutter and the other hand to slide the lock into place. Don't get me wrong... after a short period of time this method is easy. This is built much better than the other releases I've seen and it actually works. For me the cable length on the MC-30A is just right and the cable is actually pretty thick which I think is a good thing. My last one was too long and thin. The 10 pin connector has a white arrow on it that lines up with a white dot on my D810 making connecting it to the camera easy. The locking screw is big and works well. Anyway, great product!

A photographer friend recommended this product to me after my other cable release stopped working. I've had the release on my camera since it arrived. There are several things I really like about it: 1) the cable length is the perfect size, 2) the push down button is easy to find (feel) and use, and, 3) it screws on easily to the front of my camera.

Purchased this remote for my Nikon D810 and am quite satisfied with its performance. I appreciate the professional quality of the thick cable and heavier insulation at the ends where breakage normally takes place.

I use the MC-30A for long exposures and for wild life photography. The MC-30A allow me to perform rapid exposures without any camera movement and to lock the lens open "Bulb" when desired. The Nikon MC-30A is superior in design, craftsmanship, and functionality. I highly endorse the Nikon MC-30A over any other brand.

Ordered the remote trigger release mainly for long exposures with star trails and when shooting brackets for HDR. The 10 pin screw in is very easy to grip and the trigger itself and slide lock are nice.Certain situations I would have liked a longer cable, while others I wish it was shorter so it wasn't dangling so much, but overall I'm content on the cable length. I give 4 stars only because the price is rather high for such minimal materials. Other than that I have no complaints.

I was looking for an affordable remote release so that I can capture low light landscapes without touching the camera and this one did the trick. It works with my D3 and D300. The one drawback is that it is not cordless.

Purchased this remote release to replace a non-functioning generic brand. What a difference! Nikon has engineered a perfectly functioning release that is easy to use, fits the hand well, and works great. Have been looking for one of these for some time, and now own and use one.
